COMBINATION WATER-BOTTLE AND SYRINGE.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented June 19, 19117.

Application filed July 10, 1916. Serial No. 108,402.

To all whom at may concern:

Be it known that I, ROBERT I. PARKS, a

citizen of the United States, residing at a Washington, in the Districtof Columbia, have invented certain useful Improvements in Combination-Water-Bottles and Syringes, of which the following is a specification,reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.

This invention relates to hot water bottles and more especially to theclass of combination hot water bottles and syringes.

The primary object of the invention is the provision of an article ofthis character wherein the body thereof is preferably made from metalformed in two sections joined to each other through the medium of anoverlapped seam formed at the meeting edges of said sections therebyproducing a structure which possesses strength and durability thusincreasing the longevity of the article.

Another object of the invention is the provision of an article of thischaracter Wherein the body thereof is constructed in a novel manner sothat a cage or container is removably heldtherein for receivingantiseptic material which is readily dissolved on the introduction ofhot water into the body thereof, thereby preventing the cooling of thewater should the same be placed within a separate receptacle and theantiseptic material dropped therein for the dissolving of the samewithin the water in the ordinary well known manner.

A further object of the invention is the provision of an article of thischaracter wherein the construction thereof permits the converting of thearticle into either a hot water bottle or fountain syringe.

A still further object of the invention is the provision of an articleof this character which is simple in construction, neat, attractive inappearance, compact, thoroughly reliable and efficient in its purposesand inexpensive in manufacture.

With these and other objects in View, the invention consists in thefeatures of construction combination and arrangement of parts as will behereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing andpointed out in the claims herein appended.

In accompanying drawing:

Figure 1 is a side elevation of a combination water bottle and syringeconstructed in accordance with the invention the body being partlybroken away.

Fig. 2 is an edge elevation thereof.

Fig. 3 is a fragmentary enlarged vertical longitudinal sectional viewthrough one corner of the body.

Fig. 4 is a view similar to Fig. 3 through the other corner of the body.

Fig. 5 is a side elevation of the cage or container for thedisinfectant.

Fig. 6 is an end elevation thereof.

Similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts' throughoutthe several views in the drawing.

Referring to the drawing in detail, the combination waterbottle andsyringe comprises a substantially rectangular shaped hollow flattenedbody A, preferably formed in two sections 5 and- 6 respectively whichare connected together through the medium of an over-lap seam 7 at theirmeeting edges, the seam being formed in any approved manner so as toavoid any possibility of leakage at the joint, of the sections. The bodyA is preferably made from metal although the same may be made from anyother suitable material giving strength and durability thereto.

Two opposed corners of the body A are flattened in contra-distinction tothe remaining two rounded corners of the body to present inset diagonalcorners 8 having formed therein exteriorly threaded annular necks 9 onwhich are detachably fitted removable caps 10 which are internallythreaded to engage the threaded necks and in each cap is carried aresilient disk 11 forming a washer so as to afford a tight joint whenthe cap is applied to the neck to avoid leakage therethrough.

At one side of each neck 9 and integrally formed with the body A ormounted thereon is an eye 12 to which is connected a retaining chain 13the same being also connected in any suitable manner to the cap 10 sothat on the removal of the latter the same sepzu'aied 5i inched or willnot become secured upon the outer sides of said flat and holding saidreceptacle in place and for faces, a reticulated receptacle fittingengagement with the open end of said nipthrough the opening of saidupper flat face plc to seal the same. 10 and projecting into the hollowbody, a nip- In testimony whereof I aflix my signature. 5 ple secured tothe lower fiat face within said ROBERT I.
